      I also am terrified that I have a brain tumour. It all started last week when I woke up early hours of the morning with a striking headache down the left side of my head/face, i then got up out of bed and my vision went blurry, my speech was slurred and I had numbness in my arm and pins and needles in my hand. I was discharged from hospital with a migraine but have suffered with the same symptoms for the following week. I have felt like there is pressure and throbbing at the back of my head and sometimes my vision can go slightly funny. I also sometimes get sharp shooting pains in my head and I am so worried. I went to the doctors on tuesday and he checked my eyes and reflexes and that was all fine , he also did a blood test and I am awaiting the results. I have been under a lot of stress recently with university and my driving test which I had to cancel after what happened to me. I also suffer hugely with anxiety throughout my life. I have googled symptoms of brain tumours and this has caused me to have several panic attacks where I am left badly shaking. Sometimes the pain will get worse when i am stressed and panicking. Can anyone help or put my mind at ease ?.
